School Closed: The Delhi government has stated that schools would be closed from November 9 to November 18 due to an ongoing decrease in the Air Quality Index (AQI) and a rising outbreak of air pollution in the nation's capital.

The Delhi administration has declared a winter break starting in November due to pollution. According to a government directive, all schools will be closed from November 9 to November 18 for winter holiday. Also, there won't be any online instruction during this time. Prior to this, schools were given notice of vacations until November 10.

Gopal Rai, the environment minister for Delhi, said on Wednesday that although we in Delhi are diligently adhering to all GRAP regulations, the governments of the surrounding states are doing nothing but standing by. I believe that joint meetings will be held after the Supreme Court's directives, and each state's implementation will get careful consideration.

Outlawing fireworks

He said that during Diwali, firecrackers were outlawed in Delhi. I have been advocating for the prohibition of firecrackers in the states around us for the last month, but no one is willing to stand out or listen. It seems that he does not care about pollution during BJP regimes. The rhetorical formula is the only formula he knows.

Rai expressed gratitude to the Supreme Court for ordering the reopening of the pollution tower in Delhi's Connaught Place, which the DPPC Chairman had previously shuttered. The Delhi Government is grateful to the Supreme Court for ordering the resumption of the Real Time Source Support Study, which the DPPC Chairman had put on hold.

appeals from parents to the government

As Delhi's schools are once again shuttered because of pollution, a lot of parents have been pressuring the administration to come up with a long-term solution. PTI was informed by Ajit Mishra, the father of a kid in class two, that we had been disregarded. Nothing has been done to address Delhi's pollution issue, which has lasted for many years. Online learning isn't a solution since many students don't have access to the resources they need.

The father of a Class 6 kid at Delhi Cantonment's Kendriya Vidyalaya, Raj Kumar Kanojia, said that online learning is not equivalent to traditional classroom instruction. Since just one or two courses are conducted when kids are moved to an online learning environment, as opposed to conventional school days.

Tuesday morning saw a minor decline in Delhi's pollution levels after five days in a row when the air quality index stayed in the bad category. It fell into the "very bad" category on Tuesday. At 4 p.m. on Tuesday, Delhi, the nation's capital, had an AQI of 394, compared to 421 on Monday.
